Pluspunten

- fully remote working environment - has a known rep in alt data space - opportunity to learn client interaction skills and SQL (if you are in product/data)

Minpunten

You will be excessively micromanaged, even while leadership insists that the culture focuses on fostering ownership. Messages where you are cross-examined and put on blast in front of multiple people/teams do happen and people are afraid to speak up afterwards. There is a predefined process/framework for literally every task, and any deviation from it will be met with severe pushback. Again, this is a company that claims to value "ownership". Product leadership is pushing for new initiatives and changes every week, but all its causing is more work, more processes and frameworks to be defined, and more stress for an already burnt-out and underpaid product team. The cherry on top of all of this is that more and more roles are being filled by overseas hires so you have to worry about job security on top of all of the factors noted above.

Pluspunten

Ownership is a real concept. Growth and evolution of the company has been extremely interesting to be a part of. People here hold themselves to a super high standard.

Minpunten

Communication/change management could be improved. With rapid growth and new business units popping up, it can lead to silos between teams.

Pluspunten

Most were easy to work with and low-ego, and the general vibe within teams was largely relaxed. Opportunities for skill development Structured approach to onboarding is helpful for new hires

Minpunten

It was nice for a while, but things became increasingly corporate and opaque. The first round of layoffs damaged trust in leadership, and subsequent decisions around cost-cutting and organizational changes did little to restore it. Midway through my time here, I was reassigned to a new reporting line and it quickly became clear it wasn’t a great fit. Priorities and expectations shifted constantly, and feedback was solicited from my peers in a way that felt more punitive than developmental. I shared with leadership and HR that this dynamic was stressful and uncomfortable, and while there were some basic attempts to mediate, the issues continued, and my request to move to a different reporting line was denied. When our team was asked to document all of our projects and processes, I asked if it seemed a little strange. We were assured it wasn’t, and that they just needed super detailed instructions for everything we did so that they could free us up for better, higher-impact work! With hindsight, being laid off a month later made sense. It was disappointing and weirdly heartbreaking to have been so engaged with the company, only for the process to feel so impersonal and transactional.
